Abstract:

The US Environmental Protection Agency is recognizing the importance of bottomland hardwoods as habitat for a variety of wildlife. On the other hand, the Army Corp of Engineers believe these habitats can interfere with development. A recent decision by the Attorney General has sided with the EPA, giving them authority to provide protection for hardwood habitats.
